  1. As I sit here now, seems like Corso’s always been the senile old man they wheel out onto the Gameday set.
  2. Watching the above clip…forgot that Corso could still bring the heat as late as 2008. Sucks they keep rolling him out there now.
  3. Your post is what I was getting at - we’ve only been the clearly superior team (I don’t count last year but I guess it’s arguable; OU was undefeated and ranked around 10 coming into the game) a handful of times in the past 25 years but have managed to win them all. While anything can happen, this game typically plays out like it should on paper.
  4. Probably not a terrible idea. I have a personal rule that I don’t bet against Texas under any circumstances. I’ve had a lot of cash pass by me during the Mack, Charlie, and Herman years.
  5. Oh I’m not betting it unless it drops to 14, which it might as we get closer. Even if we get up big, we still have Georgia the next week.
  6. Line closed at -3.5. That OU team was good. Certainly way better than this one.
  7. Also…when was the last time a totally outclassed OU team sprung the upset in this game?
  8. I wonder if the other books haven’t made the game available yet and what you are seeing are the pre-season lines. On DraftKings the line is not posted yet. Judging from SP+ last week, line around 16 looks appropriate.
  9. I guess the site could be wrong but…
  10. We were definitely two TDish dogs in 2013. Not sure what the ‘05 line was.
  11. Line on FanDuel is Texas -16.5, O/U 54.5

  13. I think I’d hold for one or two more games on Andrews if you have the capacity to do it.

    CFB Week 1

    4-2 on posted plays. Will be back for next week soon.
  15. Zalatoris and Cam Young also looked like they were gonna be mainstays coming out of COVID too and that hasn’t happened.
  16. Why would you sit Keegan?
  17. As I said upthread, fuck Cantlay.
  18. The Zach Lowe thing sucks. Who wants 15 percent more Stephen A at this point?

    CFB Week 1

    Added: EMich -14.5 (@Kent State) Nebraska -9.5 (@Purdue) Louisville/ND U46.5 Okie State/KSU U55.5
  20. I kind of like this US squad. Decent mix of fiery guys and quiet robots. Except Patrick Cantlay can fuck himself, of course.
  21. Got through 4 episodes of the McMahon doc. I think it’s a pretty fair portrayal. They definitely don’t try to redeem any of the shady bullshit he’s done, at least so far. Most of the footage was shot before the 2022 sale and the 2024 lawsuit though.
  22. Derek Carr should definitely be rostered now in almost every league based on the first three weeks, whereas before he was going undrafted in 12 team leagues I’m guessing. You’re not going to play him over Mahomes, Allen, etc. but if I had relied on someone like Trevor Lawrence pre-draft then yeah, Carr could start for me.

    CFB Week 1

    Thursday/Friday plays: Army -13.5 (@Temple) VaTech/Miami O55.5
  24. I’m staying away. It’s either a bet on Texas or no play. Too many variables here. 1) Is Quinn going to play? If so I like Texas laying them a lot more, because Arch will likely come in and be allowed to run the offense still even if we have a big lead. If Arch starts, foot could go off the gas early because Owens wouldn’t get the same leash, even if he plays. Don’t think we know the answer to this question until later in the week. 2) We have a bye next week. Not sure if Sark sees this as an opportunity for more reps for the top line guys because more rest is incoming or as an opportunity to pull guys early to provide them additional rest. 3) Jeff Lebby. Does Sark give a shit that the Sooner, Art Briles loving pile of shit is on the other sideline? Is there any grudge there? I don’t know. May be a good opportunity to bet live if we happen to start slow. Either way, no pre-game play for me because the number is only going to keep going up.
